Born in 1951 and raised in Alexandra township (north of Johannesburg), young Condry learned the guitar from his older brother and went on to play in groups such as The Anchors, Flaming Souls, and Flaming Ghettoes. After his son's unexplained death in 1980, he accelerated his initiation as a "Sangoma" (spiritual healer) and (after slaughering a cow to appease the ancestors) joined the famous Harari in 1981. Following the break-up of Harari he assembled a backing band for exiled artists such as Letta Mbulu and Caiphus Semenya and toured with Harry Belafonte. His extensive travels even earned him a spot on the apartheid government's national security watchlist. The late 1980's saw Mr. Ziqubu launch a successful solo career.

On edit duties is Swedish rising star @LeoAfEkenstam . In his own words;

"This edit came about during a very studio intensive period as I was working on an EP and an album at the same time. I always tended to fall back to this edit in between songs to break from that dreamy state of mind you find yourself in when working on original ideas. When I found this song I immediately fell in love with it. There are so many segments that are absolutely golden. All it needed for my sets was a bit more energy and restructuring. I ended up spending a lot of time on it, and so I thought it’d be worth sharing with others instead of just keeping it to myself. It goes without saying that all credit goes to the legend, Condry Ziqubu."

African Love Song (Marvin & Guy Edit)

For the latest addition to the Sinchi Edits series, Parisian crew @Disco-Bagarre tackle a lesser known track: "J’ai chaud" ("I am hot"), a french electro-disco song from the singer Sonia released in 1982. As a complete rework of the original, from the production to the vocal, this version slows the pace down, going from disco to dark disco with an ever-present touch of acid.

Don't You Want Me (Simon Mills / Napoleon Remix)

Rayko's Rare Wiri label bring us a five-track EP from Rich Hall and Megan Jones, better known as Cuz Electric, a nu-disco duo who've also appeared on Midnight Riot, Particle Zoo and more. Opener 'Blurred Vision' has something of a Crazy P-ish feel in its Original form. Ilya Santana sprinkles some 80s disco dust over his remix, while Rayko himself takes the track into more dreamy, downtempo pastures. 'Gurvitz Dreams' is a druggy, chuggy affair with a Moroder-ish throb, while 'Polly' completes the EP on a livelier note with house-y pianos and soaring strings a-gogo.

Anything Goes | One More Chance (John Noseda Edit)

This track, produced a few years back for Golden Soul's 1 year anniversary, has surprisingly been slightly off the radar. This scandinavian nu disco inspired tune, as described by the producer, has been a dance floor killer for any Djs who got it in their music bag ; and for the on-going Christmas season,  Thoma Cher decided to give it away to djs & music lovers community. A perfect weapon for your coming new year eve.

As one half of British twosome Earthboogie, Nicola Rose Robinson has spent the last few years offering up joyously tropical musical fusions on Leng. She continues to explore and blur those boundaries with her new solo project, Tigerbalm, whose debut single “Ello Koko” is as colourful a concoction as you’d expect.

Robinson first started work on the track while travelling in Lombok, Indonesia, drawing influence from her humid surroundings, the country’s distinctive musical culture, and the far-sighted blend of aural inspirations. On returning to the UK, she enlisted the assistance of Alex Searle (bass and lead guitar) and Patrick Dawes (percussion) to complete her musical vision.

Opening with an infectious rhythm rich in disco drums and ear-catching hand percussion patterns, “Ello Koko” brilliantly blends flash-fried tropical funk guitars, squelchy electro synths, weighty dub disco bass, warm electric piano chords and sampled Indonesian vocal snippets. The resultant dancefloor-focused workout is simultaneously low-slung, jaunty and kaleidoscopic: it’s as impressive a solo debut as we’ve heard for some time.

As you’d expect, Robinson’s original version comes backed with some similarly inspired remixes. The first revision comes courtesy of rising stars Flamingo Pier, a collective whose glorious fusions of electrofunk, disco, Latin and African rhythms regularly explore similar sonic territory as “Ello Koko”. Their take on the track is powered forwards by an elastic synth bassline, Nile Rodgers style disco guitars, NYC boogie style lead lines and Patrick Dawes’ superb percussion. It’s a summer-fresh treat.

To complete the package, Razor ‘N’ Tape co-founder and Escort band member JKriv sticks a rocket up the backside of “Ello Koko” and turns it into an unfeasibly heavy dub disco treat. Alex Searle’s bassline and Dawes’ heady percussion dominate the mix, with Robinson’s dancing melodies stretching out atop the weighty grooves. Throw in some well-placed, delay-laden breakdowns and you have a version tailor made for celebratory peak-time moments.
